All of these rocks were found in my backyard/woods in Southern Michigan. The first one looks like it has agate like banding/swirls. It looks like it may be mixed with chert or flint??

I dug all these up in a patch of gravel in the same location. I'm hoping I have a honey hole :)
 

First one is for sure....the rest not so much.

First one does look like some type of agate with quartz and something else conglomerate but very fractured. Second one....I don't know much outside of petrified wood for fossils so no idea. 3rd maybe jasper? Just my amature guesses :)

I must say that I don't see any of them as agates. Maybe granite and quartz. First one looks to me like granite.
